uriosity for a fellow classmate who seems different is the focus of this book. The very natural "why" questions take us on a journey of discovery into the many aspects of autism. It is completely understandable that the children would question the behavior of their peer with special needs and Vivian uses her curiosity to educate herself and others. Mrs. H, Alicia's helper, hopes the children will see their different classmate through a more compassionate set of eyes.
